The new synthesizer solves the 37 wpm problem. It also seems to speed up the QSK somewhat. I just tried it on my updated K3 and I seem to be able to hear between dits at 25 to maybe 27 wpm.

I just learned of the "37 wpm" problem with the original K3 (non-S), which I have.  I just verified that, indeed, above 37 wpm the cw gets all messed up.  This seems to occur whether in QSK (Break-in) or PTT mode.  The problem seems to go away, at least up to 50 wpm, in the QRQ mode.

A possibly related issue is the slow QSK recovery.  In the normal QSK mode, one can just hear between the dits at 16 wpm.  In QRQ mode, that goes all the way up to 18 wpm.

Does the new synthesizer ala K3S solve either of these problems? If not, is there another solution?
